Fundamentals Of Metallurgical Processing

Fundamentals of Metallurgy

As product specifications become more demanding, manufacturers require steel with ever more specific functional properties. As a result, there has been a wealth of research on how those properties emerge during steelmaking. Fundamentals of Metallurgy summarizes this research and its implications for manufacturers. The first part of the book reviews the effects of processing on the properties of metals with a range of chapters on such phenomena as phase transformations, types of kinetic reaction, transport and interfacial phenomena. Authors discuss how these processes and the resulting properties of metals can be modelled and predicted. Part 2 discusses the implications of this research for improving steelmaking and steel properties. With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Fundamentals of metallurgy will be an invaluable reference for steelmakers and manufacturers requiring high-performance steels in such areas as automotive and aerospace engineering. About the editor Seshadri Seetharaman is Professor of Materials Process Science at the prestigious Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. Professor Seetharaman has an international reputation in metallurgy research.
